>Due to its hypnotic powers, upon Mega Evolving it either confuses your opponent's pokémon or puts them to sleep (50/50, chosen at random)>These pokémon will not shake off their confusion nor wake up until switched out or until Mega Malamar faints>Any pokémon sent out while Mega Malamar is on the field becomes confused or falls asleepThere, gave it an unique ability for gen 10Is it good now?

>>58232001Banned to AG, what the fuck OP
>>58232019Then how about just confuse on contact to be OU friendly?
>>58232019by who? shitmogon is dead
>>58232031Physical mons suffer enough
>>58232001Give it a Toxic Chain equivalent for confusion. Still a pain in the ass that way but not laughably broken
I'd just have the first effect, make it like an Intimidate but instead of lowering attack it does just that. And if the opponent has one status effect but not the other it chooses the other.
>>58232001If descriptions at least hint at the potential ability this time around, then it will have Analytic.
>>58232662Ability so shit shit it might be true
>>58232669I don't think it's bad, but in the first place Malamar needs heavy stat redistribution for Analytic to hit really hard and Malamar not to die before. It looks like it's a special attacker now despite the overwhelming physical movepool, but that could be just for show. IMO they should go all-in for the physical Analytic user route and sap away from special attack and speed and put it in Attack with the potential increase as well. If Attack or Special Attack is more than 130, then it will become the strongest Analytic user.
>>58232019Banned FROM Ubers you mean. You realize OP is a joke right?
>>58232349It would still be utterly bustedLol Intimidate is already op, now instead of a stat drop you want a free status on switch inTwo of the most broken statuses in the game at that You people are insane
